A card in your words

You do not have to be in Edmonton.

Edmonton is Alberta's capital, built along the North Saskatchewan River valley, and the northern anchor of the Calgary to Edmonton corridor. The University of Alberta and most provincial government offices sit here, and a good share of people who say Edmonton actually live in St. Albert, Sherwood Park or Spruce Grove in the same metro area.

Order from anywhere in Canada or outside it, put the Edmonton address in at checkout with any apartment or buzzer number, and the box goes straight to them. I am one person packing boxes in Canada, not a shop on their street, so what arrives is the same box and the same card whether they live in Edmonton or three provinces away.

One place in Canada, free shipping to every address in the country.

Sending one to Edmonton.

Edmonton sits on the North Saskatchewan River, the capital of Alberta and home to the University of Alberta and the provincial legislature. If you are sending a gift here from elsewhere in the country, you are sending it to a city that wears its seasons honestly. Winters run long and genuinely cold, and a thoughtful box arriving in January lands differently than it would almost anywhere else.

In a city this cold for this long, a gift that simply arrives says plenty.

One box, three sizes.

The box I send most often, matched to the person rather than the date. What goes inside changes with the season, so I describe each size by how full it is rather than listing it.

No two boxes are exactly alike. Every photograph shows the style and the quality rather than the exact box, and every occasion has its own shelf.

Start with the occasion.

The same boxes, sorted by the reason you are sending one. Every shelf ships free to Edmonton.

Where I ship in Edmonton.

Free shipping reaches every address in Edmonton, with no surcharge for any neighbourhood and no minimum order. A few of the areas boxes go to:

  • DowntownThe civic and government core, anchored by the Alberta Legislature and the arts district along the river valley's edge.
  • Old Strathcona and Whyte AvenueEdmonton's most walkable main street, lined with independent coffee shops, record stores, breweries and live music venues.
  • Oliver (Wihkwentowin)Renamed in 2024 to a Cree word meaning circle of friends, this dense neighbourhood overlooks the North Saskatchewan River valley.
  • GarneauTucked between the university and Whyte Avenue, a student-heavy mix of condos, walk-up apartments and older homes.
  • WindermereOne of the city's newer areas in the southwest, built out since the mid-2000s along the river's south bank.
  • RiverbendAn established residential pocket south of the river, bordered by the Whitemud Creek ravine and plenty of green space.

Why people send a gift in Edmonton.

University of Alberta convocation

The U of A holds its main ceremonies in June and again in November, with families travelling in from across the province. A box that reaches a Garneau apartment before the walk across the stage marks the milestone without competing with the celebration.

The first real cold snap

January in Edmonton sits well below freezing for weeks, and Arctic air can push the city past thirty below for days at a time. A gift that arrives during a deep freeze, when staying in is the only sensible plan, is a kind way to say you are thinking of someone.

Festival season send-offs

From K-Days in July to the Folk Music Festival and the Fringe in August, summer in Edmonton runs on festivals. It is a natural window to mark a birthday or to thank someone hosting visitors during the busiest, brightest weeks of the year.

A new place in a growing suburb

Edmonton keeps spreading outward, with newer neighbourhoods like Windermere and the communities of St. Albert, Sherwood Park and Spruce Grove drawing first-time homeowners. A housewarming box is an easy way to welcome someone who has just put down roots.

Questions about sending to Edmonton.

How does sending a gift basket to Edmonton work?

You order from wherever you are, enter the Edmonton address at checkout with any apartment or buzzer number, and write the message you want on the card. I pack the box by hand in Canada and send it out with free shipping. There is no price on anything inside, so it arrives as a gift. For a birthday or another dated occasion, order with a week or two of room.

Which parts of Edmonton do you ship to?

Free shipping reaches every address in Edmonton, including Downtown, Old Strathcona and Whyte Avenue, Oliver (Wihkwentowin), Garneau, Windermere, and more. Nearby communities like St. Albert, Sherwood Park, Spruce Grove are covered too. There is no extra charge for any neighbourhood.

Anything worth knowing when you send to Edmonton?

Check the town on the address before you order. Plenty of Edmonton recipients are really in St. Albert, Sherwood Park or Spruce Grove, and those are separate municipalities with their own postal codes.

Is shipping to Edmonton really free?

Yes. Every order ships free to Edmonton and everywhere else in Canada, with no minimum and no promo code. The price you see is the price you pay, and boxes start at $99.

Do you send corporate gifts to Edmonton?

Yes. I handle corporate orders shipped to individual addresses across Edmonton and the rest of Alberta. Corporate gifting starts at $119 a box. Email team@swipegifts.com for a quote.

Where to go next

Somewhere in Edmonton there is someone who would not expect this. I will pack the box by hand, write your card out in pen, keep every price out of it, and send it free to their door, the same as I do everywhere else in Alberta.
